I made $27.8 from March 2013 to end of 2013. First year pay is rough. You won't be on RSV long and can usually break guarantee if your willing to haggle schedule or do a JA or 2,3,4 etc.....

I should hit $75k this year (first 2 months of 2014 where still 2nd year pay)

I'd imagine a DAL or Yonited guy can probably make that first year
